Four ways to measure GDP

Expenditure: GDP = C + I + G + (X − M). The most-used textbook form.

Income: sum of wages, rents, interest, profits, depreciation and indirect taxes — equals expenditure GDP in theory.

Real growth = nominal growth − inflation. Per-capita GDP normalizes by population to compare living standards.
